Wessex Energy Advice Centre is working with E.ON to assist qualifying owner occupiers and private tenants with a new boiler where theirs is intermittent or non-operational.

The scheme which uses Energy Company Obligation (ECO) Funding, under the Home Heating Cost Reduction Obligation (HHCRO) element, offers generous funding towards the cost of a new boiler installation and arranges for the installation to be completed by registered and qualified Gas Safe heating engineers.

If you have a client you think may qualify, please ask them to call Wessex Energy on: 01202 209410
